    Few thousand kilometers

     

    Exterior Looks are subjective though. My views here. Front looks awesome, and the side flows in.  Rear may not be to much liking though.

     

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Nothing to complain on the long list of features.  Oodles of space and extremely comfortable for both Front and Rear seats.

     

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Nothing to complain about on the engine performance so far.  I have clocked 10,500 km in the past 11 months. I drive in bumper-bumper traffic in the morning and smooth ride in nights. I get an average of about 14.6 km/l so far by Full Tank - Full Tank method. This is my first car, so cannot compare with anything else. Gears slot neatly. It is not silken smooth but gives confidence when shifting. Clutch is a bit hard.

     

    Ride Quality & Handling Best to drive a bit sedately.  Cornering has to be done at a nominal speed. Sudden turns, gives a decent amount of body roll.  Once you are used to the feel, then no looking back.

     

    Final Words Long list of features, humongous space inside, reasonably priced all this makes this car a Good value for money package. I would recommend this buy, if the small minor irritants can be absorbed by the potential owner, as the other + factors far outweigh them.

     

    Areas of improvement Power window switches are a sore thumb. You need to pull a bit more than the normal position to roll up the windows. All four door Switches were replaced at-least twice to rectify this problem, but still persists in one. Power Window Switch lights (basically small white LEDs) are extremely unreliable.  Just within 3 days of replacing the switch, the bulb conks off.

     

    Decent Fuel Economy, Extremely Comfortable, Huge Loads of spacePoor quality of Power window switches, Minor vibration noise
